Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 June 2024.
All research outputs
#21,256,848
of 26,103,952 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Sustainability
#241
of 462 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#122,397
of 183,499 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Sustainability
#7
of 28 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 26,103,952 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 462 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.4. This one is in the 45th percentile – i.e., 45% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 183,499 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 20th percentile – i.e., 20% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 28 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 67% of its contemporaries.
